Is Penn foster legit?

Penn Foster is a legitimate education institution. Its career school and high school are accredited by the Accrediting Commission of the Distance Education and Training Council (DETC). Many programs offered are approved for veterans education benefits.

Some students rave about a challenging curriculum and a flawless course delivery method, but then upon graduation report that their degrees are not recognized by employers.

Others have complained that they were not allowed to take required state licensing exams for their chosen profession, because their degree program was not accredited in their state. A few graduates say they've attained jobs immediately after receiving a diploma.

Penn Foster is now offering a pay-as-you go plan to allow students to graduate debt free. You can enroll today for only $1. No payments are expected for 30 days.
